</div></div>Hi,<br>
<br>
It's also worth to mention...<br>
<br>
"On 21 July 2011 Linus Torvalds announced the release of Linux<br>
3.0: "Gone are the 2.6.<bignum> days". The version bump is not about<br>
major technological changes when compared to Linux 2.6.39; it marks<br>
the kernel's 20th anniversary. The time-based release process remained<br>
the same."<br>
